Mousetrap....god help anybody that gets a beating thinking it is love....
Some women don't have the where-with-all or the brains to get out. They take repeated beatings because of "the kids"...what rubbish, don't they realise they are doing the kids harm by staying.
anastasia says....don't judge a woman for the choice she makes..... I don't judge them I just won't give any sympathy when they choose to stay and get beaten.......you make your bed, you lie in it........
Bernice:There's a psychology behind it and for many women, it's like being caught in a trap. It seems easy to outsiders that escape is a logical choice. But it's like having one's legs in a cement bucket. You can't move. For many women, there's no place to go but perhaps the biggest deterrent is the fear factor. Look at how many abusive men go after their ex's and do them harm even to the point of death. It's easier to live with the abuse than it is the fear of what may happen if you leave. I think that the abuser breaks their spirit and they have nothing left to help them flee the abusive relationship. They are frozen like a deer in headlights.
Artful Dodger: Yes I partially agree with you....it is the woman who stay for years putting up with the abuse. There is always something/someone to help. The salvation army for starters, and they DO NOT require you to join the church before they will help like a lot of the others do.
Anyway.....Happy Valentines day to those that are happy and/or in love....beaten or otherwise........
